Large-scale false imprisonments in Los Angeles
County, California, were previously reported. [1] Here, a related practice is reported false hospitalization
of attorneys who filed complaints pertaining to the widespread corruption of
Los Angeles County judges: Attorney Richard Fine, falsely hospitalized since
March 4, 2009, and Attorney Ronald Gottschalk, since released on bail. In both cases, there was no medical
justification for the hospitalizations, which were coerced. Conditions in Los Angeles County are a Human
Rights disgrace of historic proportions, and direct extension of false imprisonments of thousands, documented in the Rampart scandal (1998-2000), which were never reversed ever since.[[Rampart re]]

Most published reports regarding the false hospitalization
of Richard Fine failed to provide the fundamental
facts. Starting in 2001, Richard Fine, a
former US Prosecutor, exposed and protested the then secret payment to all
Superior Court of California judges by Los Angeles County. He also was the first to compile data to
demonstrate that in parallel it became practically impossible to win a case in
court against Los Angeles County. In
October 2008, such payments - today amounting to over
$45,000 per judge per year - were ruled "not permitted" by the California Court of Appeals, 4th. By February
20, 2009, the California Governor signed into law retroactive immunities/pardons
for all judges who had taken such "not permitted" payments. Less than two weeks later, Atty Richard Fine
was taken into false hospitalization by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's
Department.

However, there was no warrant ever issued for
the arrest of Mr. Fine. Likewise, there
was neither a valid and effectual conviction, nor was there a valid and
effectual sentencing. The March 4, 2009
proceeding, at the end of which Mr. Fine was abducted, never appeared as part of
the respective litigation (Marina v Los Angeles County - BS109420) chronology
- it was - from court's perspective - an "off the record"
proceeding.

Furthermore, in the past 10 months, despite the Habeas Corpus Petition to the
US District Court Los Angeles, and the Emergency Petition to the 9th Circuit,
the LA Superior Court has denied access to the Register of Actions (California
docket) of Marina v LA County
- in which Mr. Fine was purportedly arrested. How the US Court engaged in a habeas corpus review with
no docket, and how the US Court of Appeal, 9th circuit, failed to notice that there was no docket, no warrant, no
conviction, and no sentencing, remains unknown ...

The review of the Habeas Corpus Petition, Fine
v Sheriff (2:09-cv-01914),
was suspect on additional counts. Donna
Thomas, Courtroom Assistant to Magistrate Carla Woehrle, who engaged in
transactions in the US District Court docket, which were subject to complaint
to FBI, was never authorized as Deputy Clerk.
Furthermore, the Clerk of the US Court, Terry Nafisi, has refused to allow
access to any of the records in Mr. Fine's case, and likewise, is refusing to
answer the questions: (i) Was Donna Thomas authorized as Deputy Clerk at the
time she engaged in the transaction in Fine
v Sheriff?(ii) Is the docket of Fine
v Sheriff an honest, valid, and effectual docket of the US Court in
compliance with US law?

In a matching parallel, Lee Baca, Sheriff of Los Angeles County, after over three
months of communications, including intervention by the Honorable Michael
Antonovich, Los Angeles County Supervisor, has refused to comply with the law,
and has continuously denied access to California Public Records, which were the
arrest and booking papers of Mr. Fine. Instead, Sheriff Baca office has
repeatedly referenced the fraudulent data posted in its online Inmate
Information Center. The fraudulent
Inmate Information Center falsely stated that Mr. Fine was arrested and booked
at the "San Pedro Municipal Court".
However, such data were false on
numerous accounts: There were plenty of witnesses and newspaper reports
that the abduction of Richard Fine took place in the Central District - Judge
Yaffe's Courtroom. Furthermore, there
were no booking facilities in San Pedro at all. Likewise, the single sheriff Deputy in San Pedro denied that
anybody was arrested or booked there anytime in memory. Finally - Municipal
Courts ceased to exist in Los Angeles County almost a decade ago.

The fraudulent listing of the arrest and
booking of Richard Fine under the San Pedro Municipal Court was, however,
employed by the Sheriff's Department. In response to requests to access the arrest and booking papers,
public records by California Public Records Act, the sheriff's bureau claimed
that the standard policy was that the booking papers were held with the
"Booking Agency". In this particular case - this is the non-existent
Municipal Court of San Pedro...

Furthermore, since Mr. Fine was never arrested,
and never booked, he is not on the "Count List" of the Men's Central
Jail. Therefore, Mr. Fine has
never even once in ten months participated in the mandatory three times a day
"Inmates Counts", which apply to all inmates in the jail. Instead, Mr. Fine was held under false,
coercive hospitalization, with no medical reason at all.

The story as a whole, was eerily reminiscent
of coercive hospitalizations of dissidents by the KGB under the former Soviet
Union. Given the failure of the US
justice system to investigate, prosecute, and judge its own corruption, it
appeared that the only remedies could come through international intervention.

above, including correspondence with Sheriff Lee Baca's office and with
Supervisor Michael Antonovich, and in addition, analysis of the Sheriff's
fraudulent Inmate Information Center - hazard for the liberty of all who reside
